Environmental activist David Suzuki and his daughter Severn Cullis-Suzuki have devoted their personal and professional lives to raising awareness about society’s need to exist in harmony with the natural world.

Severn says, "I am proud to share a tradition with my father. The roots of our family culture are in my childhood. Amidst careers that took them all over the world, Mum and Dad instilled in my sister and I a deep connection to place, based on camping, fishing, eating from the land and sea, and discussion with each other at the dinner table. Now as an adult, I have many different perspectives from Dad, but we share a love of being outside, and a passion for speaking out about the ecological destruction eroding the human condition. We each fight for intergenerational justice, and now, with two children of my own, I have new respect for what he has been calling for all these years. Still constantly challenging each other, I’m honoured to share the stage with my father, David Suzuki."
